Poll shows that Cowboys are still America’s Team

Apparently, saying that the Dallas Cowboys are America’s Team is more than just repeating an old-fashioned nickname.

According to the results of a recent Harris Poll, the Cowboys are the most popular team in the NFL for the fifth consecutive season. Jerry Jones’ team also topped the poll, which began monitoring favorite NFL teams in 1998, during the 1998, 1999 and 2003 seasons, and the franchise with five Super Bowl trophies has never been ranked lower than fourth.

The results were gathered from an online survey of 2,462 adults, which was conducted between September 12 and 19. Rounding out the top five this season were the Packers, Steelers, Patriots and Bears.

The results obviously show that Jones doesn’t have to win a Super Bowl, or even make the playoffs, to harbor an impressive fan base.
